A Novel Architecture for Diabetes Patients’ Prediction Using K-Means Clustering and SVM

Abstract
Diabetes is one of the alarming issues in today’s era. It is a chronic disease that may cause many health-related problems. It is a group of syndrome that results in too much sugar in the blood. Diabetes’s chronic hyperglycemia has been linked to long-term damage, organ breakdown, and organ failure, notably in the eyes, kidneys, nerves, heart, and veins. Machine learning has quickly advanced, and it is now used in many facets of medical health. The goal of this research is to create a model with the highest level of accuracy that can predict a patient’s chance of developing diabetes. This paper proposes a novel architecture for predicting diabetes patients using the K-means clustering technique and support vector machine (SVM). The features extracted from K-means are then classified using an SVM classifier. A publicly available dataset, namely, the Pima Indians Diabetes Database, is tested using this approach. Accuracy of 98.7% is noted on the used dataset. On this dataset, the combined method performs better than the conventional SVM-based classification. This paper also compared the accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score of the different machine learning techniques for classifying diabetes patients.
